Homework2 Channel and Interface

Description

In SystemC, interface is an abstract class that inherits from sc_interface. Interface can be

used to define communication protocols between different modules. It only describes the

communication methods and protocols and does not involve specific data transmission.

A SystemC channel is a class that implements one or more SystemC interface classes and

inherits from either sc_channel or sc_prim_channel. The following figure shows some

primitive channels and interfaces defined by SystemC library:

Implementation Details

The purpose of this homework assignment is to give students an opportunity to practice

using sc_signal, sc_buffer, and sc_fifo to establish a communication mechanism between

different modules. You are required to divide the AlexNet model implemented in HW1 into

several sub-modules (not necessarily distinguished by layer) and then connect them using

these three SystemC channels. The result of the model's execution should be identical to

that of HW1.

Implement Notes

? Module Boundaries:

Ensure that each submodule has clearly defined boundaries and that any communication

and interaction between them is clearly specified. This helps reduce coupling between

modules, making the code easier to understand and debug.

? Module functionality:

Each submodule should have specific functionality, and these functionality should be as

independent and reusable as possible. This makes the code more modular and individual

modules can be easily replaced or modified when needed without affecting other

modules.

? Testing and Validation:

Each submodule is unit tested to ensure it functions properly and as expected. In

addition, integration testing should be performed on the entire system to verify the

interfaces and interactions between modules.

Submission Guidelines

? Please compress a folder named HW<ID>_<studend-ID> into a zip file with the

same name and upload it to E3.

? The folder should include:

o Report (Name: HW<ID>_<student ID>.pdf)

o Codes

o Makefile

? Example:

? You don’t need to upload parameters.

? Ensure that your code is well-commented and organized for clarity and

understanding.

? Plagiarism is forbidden, otherwise you will get 0 point!!!
